Dear maintainers of libfso-glib and fso-gsmd, I have noticed that libfso-glib and fso-gsmd have started a transition and they seem to have been "left to rot" in unstable. My issue here is that they are keeping at least 4 RC bug fixes out of testing at the moment[1].
The situation (as far as I can understand it) is that: libfso-glib dropped libfso-glib1 in favor of libfso-glib2 fso-gsmd dropped fso-gsmd-ezx, fso-gsmd-gta04, fso-gsmd-htc and fso-gsmd-openmoko According to dak, the binaries removed from fso-gsmd breaks: """ fso-common: fso-gta01 fso-gta02 fso-frameworkd: fso-frameworkd-gta01 [armel] fso-frameworkd-gta02 [armel] fso-gsmd: fso-gsmd-dbg [armel armhf] """ fso-common is not in testing and AFAICT broken already in sid, so "breaking it again" shouldn't be a problem atm. So that leaves fso-gsmd-dbg, fso-frameworkd-gta01 and fso-frameworkd-gta02 as things that need to be resolved. The removal of libfso-glib1 only breaks the binaries being removed from fso-gsmd, so as soon as the fso-gsmd situation is resolved, the libfso-glib situation can be resolved as well. So thats the situation. I kindly ask you to resolve this situation within 14 days or I may end up removing one or more of your packages from testing to reduce the number of RC bugs in testing. Once the packages can be decrufted without any adverse affects to other (non-broken packages), please let us know so we can have the FTP masters decruft your packages. DDs can test the potential adverse effects of decrufts by using dak on coccia.debian.org, e.g: $ dak rm -Rnb fso-gsmd-ezx fso-gsmd-gta04 fso-gsmd-openmoko Will tell you the consequences of decrufting fso-gsmd at the moment. ~Niels [1] #693577 (libfso-glib) #707439, #722926 (libphone-ui-shr) #707357 (fso-gsmd) _______________________________________________ pkg-fso-maint mailing list pkg-fso-maint@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-fso-maint
